Military-affiliated Ministers in Republican Governments (1923-2025)

This submission includes two distinct but related datasets that provide a detailed quantitative analysis of the presence of military-affiliated individuals in Turkish cabinets. The data covers the period from 1920 to 2025 and serves to illustrate the extent of the military's influence within the executive branch of the Turkish government. Dataset 1: "Table 4. Military-affiliated Ministers in Turkish Cabinets (1920-2025)" This dataset provides a comprehensive list of all ministers who had a military background, organized by the cabinet they served in. The dataset includes the following variables: Government Number: The sequential number of the cabinet. Cabinet Name: The name of the cabinet (e.g., The 1st Government of the Executive Committee, The 2nd Government of İsmet İnönü). Years in Office: The time period during which the cabinet was in power. Name of the Minister: The full name of the minister with a military background. Ministry: The specific ministry or portfolio held by the individual (e.g., Ministry of National Defense, Ministry of Foreign Affairs). Highest Military Rank: The highest rank the individual attained in the Turkish Armed Forces. Years of Military Service: The duration of the individual's service in the military. Dataset 2: "Table 5. Military-affiliated Ministers by Cabinet (1920-2025)" This dataset provides a statistical summary of the number of military-affiliated ministers for each cabinet. It offers a macro-level view of the trends over time and includes the following variables: Government Number: The sequential number of the cabinet. Total Number of Ministers: The total number of ministers in the cabinet. Number of Military-affiliated Ministers: The count of ministers in the cabinet with a military background. Percentage of Military-affiliated Ministers: The calculated percentage of military-affiliated ministers relative to the total number of ministers in the cabinet. Both datasets were compiled through a meticulous review of official cabinet lists, biographical records, and government archives. They are suitable for longitudinal statistical analysis, allowing researchers to track the historical evolution of military presence in the executive branch and to correlate these trends with major political events and shifts in civil-military relations in Turkey.本提交材料包含两套独立但相互关联的数据集，用于对土耳其内阁中军事背景人员的占比开展详尽的定量分析。数据集覆盖1920年至2025年的时间跨度，旨在阐明土耳其政府行政分支内军方影响力的覆盖范围。 数据集1：‘表4 土耳其内阁军事背景内阁成员（1920-2025）’ 本数据集按任职内阁归类，收录了所有具备军事背景的内阁成员的完整清单。数据集包含以下变量： - 内阁编号：内阁的序列编号 - 内阁名称：内阁的正式称谓（例如：执行委员会第一届内阁、伊斯梅特·伊诺努第二届内阁） - 任职年限：内阁执政的时间周期 - 内阁成员姓名：具备军事背景的内阁成员的全名 - 履职岗位：该成员所执掌的具体部委或分管事务 - 最高军衔：该成员在土耳其武装部队中获得的最高军衔 - 服役年限：该成员的军旅服役时长 数据集2：‘表5 按内阁统计的土耳其军事背景内阁成员（1920-2025）’ 本数据集针对每一届内阁，统计了军事背景内阁成员的数量，提供了跨时间趋势的宏观视角，包含以下变量： - 内阁编号：内阁的序列编号 - 内阁总人数：该届内阁的全体成员总数 - 军事背景内阁成员人数：该届内阁中具备军事背景的成员数量 - 军事背景内阁成员占比：该届内阁中军事背景成员占全体内阁成员的计算占比 两套数据集均通过对官方内阁名录、传记档案及政府档案的细致梳理编纂而成，适用于纵向统计分析。研究人员可借此追踪土耳其行政分支中军方参与度的历史演变，并将相关趋势与土耳其国内重大政治事件及军民关系变迁进行关联分析。
